Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2 teaspoons cocoa
• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 3 cups oatmeal - not instant
• 1/2 cup chopped nuts, optional

Preparation

Step 1

Mix butter, sugar, milk and cocoa together in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in remaining ingredients. Drop by teaspoon full (larger or smaller as desired) onto wax paper and let harden. They will set up in about 30-60 minutes.

These will keep for several days without refrigerating, up to 2 weeks refrigerated and 2-3 months frozen. Pack into ziplock sandwich bags or large mason jar.
